Chapter 68 Felicia's First Killing



"I hate that guy," Allen said as he left the guild.

"I also dislike him; he talks endlessly without considering that others may not want to listen to him. We don\'t even know each other yet."

When Lavinia finished dealing with the dungeon exploration permit, Birawa approached her and began flirting with her, but she immediately rejected him because she was a priestess. Then finally, when the three of them left the guild, Birawa waved his hand and said "goodbye" repeatedly in a loud voice, making Allen uncomfortable because of people\'s gaze.

It took about 10 minutes from the guild by carriage to the dungeon. When they arrived, Wulfgeat was already there, talking to the dungeon entrance guard.

"Good thing we went ahead without waiting for him! It turns out he arrived first!" Felicia said it in annoyance.

The Boldenville region dungeon was covered by a mountain. More precisely, the mountain was the first floor of the dungeon. The entrance to this dungeon is a cave. Around the cave was an iron fence, and ten soldiers guarded the dungeon.

"Miss Lavinia, Lady Felicia, you\'ve finally arrived," Wulfgeat said as he saw them.

"Don\'t make it seem like we\'re late! Why didn\'t you come here instead of the guild? We were supposed to have gathered at the guild before leaving!"

"I\'m sorry, Lady Felicia. But there are some things I need to prepare."

"Geez, why don\'t you just do it at the guild?!"

Wulfgeat then looked at Allen\'s face in annoyance.

"Tch,"

Lavinia took out her scroll and gave it to the warrior.

"Understood. You may enter the dungeon, Boldenville family party."

As they entered the dungeon, the air immediately turned cold. Moreover, it was very hot out there, so the suddenly cold air made them feel comfortable.

"S-so, this is inside a dungeon? It\'s brighter than I thought," said Felicia, who was gawking while looking around.

Like in the Barkaley region, this dungeon was illuminated by glowing crystals attached to almost every corner. The floor and walls were rocky, like a quarry.

"Lady, each dungeon has a different mechanism. Some dungeons spit fire randomly, and there are dungeons where the maze changes. In Boldenville\'s dungeon, the mechanism is a hole. So we have to be careful any time a hole can appear, whether small or large," Lavinia explained.

"Isn\'t that dangerous?!"

Just as Felicia asked, the ground in front of them immediately turned ash and made a hole about 30 centimeters deep.

"No need to worry. So far, the deepest hole made by this dungeon is 1 meter, so it\'s not too dangerous. It\'s just that it can become dangerous on certain occasions if you\'re not careful."

They jumped over the hole and continued forward.

Wulfgeat then went on to say more.

"That\'s right; for example, if it suddenly appears while you\'re taking a step, you could be knocked down and have your head smashed by a crystal that happens to be in front."

"It\'s even more dangerous when fighting monsters. We have to be careful."

Felicia then asked, "How do you know about this? I thought your class wasn\'t a specialist, but a medic priestess?"

"Dungeon specialists aren\'t people who know dungeons, but who know and can analyze them with their mana. Specialists focus on absorbing and understanding mana. A specialist can even know how deep a hole the dungeon will create in front of them. I only know a little about this dungeon because I... and my friends explored it once."

"Your friends? I thought you were a solo priestess, so the Boldenville family invited you. What are your friends doing now?" Felicia asked again.

At that moment, Lavinia\'s face turned somber.

Softly, she said, "They died in the dungeon,"

"I see..." Felicia only replied briefly, knowing that she shouldn\'t ask any further questions.

As for Allen, he knew who killed Lavinia\'s friends. And Allen\'s feelings when listening to Lavinia\'s story were

Not caring

He didn\'t care about Lavinia losing her friends.

He didn\'t feel that his mother was at fault there at all, and he would no longer support the actions of humans more than those of his mother. His mother must be more right, and he believed that.

"How long are we going to walk?" asked Allen.

"Tch, you peasant, is that the extent of your patience? We will be there soon!"

They continued walking until they reached the end, where there were five different entrance halls. Several people came out of there tired.

"Which one do you want, Lady?" asked Lavinia.

"Hmm, which one..." still thinking about choosing his lucky path, Wulfgeat impudently walked straight into the center.

"Hey! Why are you deciding which way to go?" shouted Felicia.

But Wulfgeat wasn\'t listening.

"Well, what else can I do... Let\'s just follow him,"

As she walked, Felicia looked at her surroundings. There were many types of grass and water running down the walls. Then, on several occasions, she could see wooden boards that showed the way.

"Miss Lavinia, isn\'t there a lot of precious minerals in the dungeon? Why didn\'t I find them earlier?"

"That\'s because it was taken away by the first person who arrived. The minerals inside the dungeon are unlimited, but they appear slowly, and for the first floor, it\'s almost impossible."

"Why is that?"

"Because the minerals come from demonic mana, or monsters, to be more precise. Monsters have soul cores that make their bones valuable. So they must first decay for decades to turn into minerals."

"Ew! So the diamonds I always wear are actually monsters?"

"It may or may not be. Minerals are not only found inside dungeons. And minerals don\'t necessarily come from monsters. But the assumption that all the minerals we buy are former monsters isn\'t wrong either."

\'Soul cores... Does mom have those too? And if she does, what can be done with it?\' thought Allen, refusing to ask Lavinia.

Besides, the scene in front of him now irritated him because Felicia made an excited face when she heard Lavinia\'s explanation, which made Allen think again that he might have made that face when Lavinia told him about the outside world.

"Alright, we finally arrive," Wulfgeat said as he opened the large door in front of him,

They came to a large door made of wood. Allen had seen that door before. In Barkaley\'s dungeon, it was the door to the room with full orcs.

Allen was instantly ready with his sword; he could sense the movement of living beings in the room.

The door opened completely.

And inside, as Allen said, there was a movement of living beings.

"Aaaah, I\'m sorry, I failed again!" cried a girl whose body was covered in sticky liquid."

"It\'s okay; it\'s okay. You can try again next time."

Inside was a party of six. And all of them were roughly 18–20 years old.

"Geez… There\'s someone else.

Hurry up and get out, everyone! This lady wants to use this room!" Wulfgeat shouted at them.

Their faces instantly turned annoyed; one of them even tried to yell at Wulfgeat.

"HUH?! ARE YOU-" but before the girl could finish speaking, the friend next to her immediately closed her mouth and signaled for her to shut her anger. They knew that it was not good to deal with nobles.

The moment Wulfgeat released his grip, the door closed again.

"What are you doing, Miss Lavinia?" asked Felicia, who saw Lavinia only silently lowering her face.

"Ah, forgive me, my lady."

As she watched the party, Lavinia recalled when she first joined her party while exploring her first dungeon.

...

"What are we going to do here?" Felicia asked.

"Of course, your first kill."

"Kill?!"

"That\'s right; you\'re going to kill monsters here; get ready."

Felicia took out her rapier, feeling a little nervous.

"Where are the monsters?" Felicia asked.

"Wait a little longer; those guys just finished them off."

A few seconds passed, and something like water came out from the center of the room. By the way, just like in the Barkaley dungeon back then, there was some kind of crest circle in the center of the room, and that water was coming out of the center.

"W-what? a slime?"

"That\'s right, go kill it, my lady," said Wulfgeat.

Felicia walked forward, aiming her rapier at the slime. The slime walked toward her,

"It\'s coming towards me! What should I do?"

"Lady, just stab that ball thing inside it!" shouted Lavinia.

Inside the slime, there was a ball thing, moved all over the slime\'s body.

"Be careful, Lady, don\'t let it get close to you; it\'ll melt you!" shouted Wulfgeat.

"Wh-what?!"

Then quickly, Felicia stabbed the ball inside the slime\'s body.

-THRUST

But she missed it. She didn\'t pierce the ball properly.

"You have to do it sharply and quickly. Because if you do it weakly, you\'ll only push the core!" Lavinia shouted.

Felicia closed her eyes and muttered,

"Sharp and fast."

"Sharp and fast."

"Sharp and fast."

"Sharp and fast."

"Sharp and fast."

After mumbling it many times, he opened his eyes and then

-THRUST

He stabbed the slime core. The slime melted, leaving only its core on the floor.

"Congratulations on making your first kill, Lady," said Wulfgeat.

"Hmph! This kind of thing is easy for me!" Felicia said proudly.

Then Felicia continued.

"Miss Lavinia, are these slime cores useful?"

"Unfortunately, no, no one uses slime cores to make weapons. So its value is equivalent to that of a normal stone." Lavinia then picked up the cores.

"Wait! Your hand will melt!"

But even though Lavinia was holding the slimy core, her hand was fine.

"Wulfgeat, you lied to me, didn\'t you?!"

"I did everything so you could do it quickly."

"That is so cruel; I feel like you are playing me."

"Let\'s continue our journey; we\'re going to the goblin room," said Wulfgeat, who continued walking ahead.

"GOBLINS?!" responded Felicia in surprise.

"Wait, Mr Wulfgeat, shouldn\'t we let Lady Felicia kill more slimes first?" asked Lavinia.

"You want to criticize me, you commoners?! If Lady Felicia wants to get stronger, she should kill stronger opponents immediately!"

Felicia then grabbed Lavinia\'s wrist.

"I think what Wulfgeat said is right. I must become stronger soon; if there\'s a shortcut, I\'ll take it."

"But..."

But they didn\'t listen to Lavinia. They continued to walk to the next room.

Allen, who had been silent, continued to watch Wulfgeat\'s movements, and he realized something.

"He\'s hiding something."
